Sexuality in Aging

Juliet Holt Klinger, MA, Senior Director of Dementia Care

In this month’s program we are going to explore the topic of aging and sexuality with a specific

focus on considerations for supporting sexuality in senior living. We will debunk myths, learn about

the positive benefits of sexual activity after age 80 and discuss what the latest research is telling us.

In this session we will also spend time on how senior living professionals can approach situations

that arise around sexuality in their communities and review the special considerations for our

residents living with dementia.

Following this presentation the participant will be able to:

• Know the facts about the prevalence of sexual expressions in older adults

• List the positive benefits of sexual activity after age 80

• Learn strategies for dealing with sexuality in senior living settings

• Discuss how to support sexual expressions in residents with dementia
